Holy whack it's working!!! :-D I'm just happy with this, although many more things are missing not only the domain name...like forum options... "youtube" anyone?!?!

I get that this is only the temp forum until the domain is up and we get back to track...

Still... we run... That nice as it is... I actually got the email on 12... and today is... ONLY 14.... I'll start losing my mental stability... :-PWell... no that's only joking... But SOR is a part of my life, posting or not... :-P

For whom the interrupts toll...

P.S. I've been inactive for almost a year... Don't give promises but I'll try to complete my tutorials. I'll let you know when..

This is *the* forum, not a temp. The forum is now stored on a new server, but the societyofrobots.com link still links to the old one, hence the IP address link. We'll just have to suffer dead links for ~5 more days, and hopefully everything then goes back to 'normal'.

Is the main site ever going to get a visual update?

Nope no plans. Mostly because a lack of my artistic ability, and my lazinesses. I also like the quick-loading and easy-on-the-eyes simplicity of it . . . although I admit it doesn't look very fancy!

The reason why the forum now looks different is the other official SMF theme never got security updates, and every year it was requiring more and more cheap hacks to get it to work right. Some mods didn't behave with it, either.

I managed to get bookmarks to work, but not sure whats up with Chat. It simply refuses to install . . . I might have to manually hack it in

My new host (hostgator) is about $7/month cheaper, has more RAM/ROM/MHz/bandwidth, has really great reviews online, and the support staff are fast/effective/caring. More importantly, unlike my last host (lunarpages), they speak English too! Hopefully the move is worth it, I can't wait to shed my old host.

A lot of people say it crashes, or has issues updating, but it has never happened to me. When i use it, it updates fine and never has locked up. I have seen the can't log out thing, but i just close the tab when i want to leave, so it doesn't bug me.

Frankly though, it sucks. It's always crashing and you can't even log out. I have to constantly restart chrome/firefox to avoid connection errors.

No matter how well it integrates, it just doesn't do its job very well. Not to mention that you have to keep a tab open all the time to see if somebody's in the chat.

Hmmm it crashes? I haven't ever had that happen to me . . . How does it crash?

As for logging out, thats just a bug I accidentally added when modifying it, but never had time/motivation to fix.

Every time you send a message, it doesn't post until you send a second message. After this goes on for a while, chatbot will start spitting out "Error: Connection Status 0" (or something like that, obviously can't test right now) and the browser has to be restarted to allow you to post again. This happens for both Google Chrome and Firefox.
